Former Duke Blue Devil Kyle Filipowski is putting together a Summer League MVP-caliber campaign so far for the Utah Jazz, and his elite all-around play could put some serious pressure on the Jazz to turn him into a full-time starter once the NBA regular season rolls around. The former second-round draft choice has continued to blossom into one of the biggest steals of the 2024 NBA Draft, and Filipowski could be right on the cusp of going from second-round pick to NBA starter in just a year.
